Managed Hosting Backups
Managed instances are backed up automatically every day. Your data is snapshotted as a single consistent state, so the database, the write-ahead log, and the YAML catalog are always captured together.
Daily Automated Snapshots
Section titled “Daily Automated Snapshots”Each night, Legend takes a block-level volume snapshot of your instance’s persistent storage. Because the snapshot is block-level, it captures the SQLite database, the write-ahead log (WAL), and the YAML catalog together as one consistent state. A restored snapshot is always a coherent instance, never a mixture of different points in time.
Retention
Section titled “Retention”Snapshots are kept on a rolling 7-day retention. Legend always keeps the most recent 7 daily snapshots, and older snapshots are automatically removed.
What Gets Backed Up
Section titled “What Gets Backed Up”Because snapshots are taken at the volume level, everything stored on your instance’s persistent volume is included:
- The managed SQLite database (including the WAL)
- Your entity catalog (YAML files)
- Documentation files
- Branding assets
Restore
Section titled “Restore”Restores are handled by Legend support. If you need to restore your instance from a snapshot, contact support with the approximate time you want to restore to.
